On Friday the 23rd of August the McCarther Park Primary School celebrated Book Week with the children dressing up as their favourite character from a book.
There was a wide variety of characters on parade including Dora the Explorer, Darth Vader, Bob the Builder and Pokemon characters. It was great to see the teachers getting int the spirit of Book Week with Little Bo Peep (Mrs Guildford), Harry Potter (Mr White) and Bart Simpson (Mr Simpson) making an appearance, just to name a few. Prizes were awarded on the day to the best costumes, as judged by the library staff, but I think everyone was a winner with a large sum of money being raised for the Save the Children Charity from the gold coin donation each contestant gave.
The Book Fair that was run in conjunction with Book Week was also well supported and a big thankyou goes out to our coordinator Mrs Jones, for all her hard work in the running of the fair. All the commission raised from the Book Fair goes towards buying more resources for the library which can only be of benefit to all. So start thinking of your constumes for next year and once again a big thankyou to everyone.
Look at all the books!
